11 bedroom detached house

Telford Manor House is a fine detached property located between Beattock and Moffat. The property was built by the famous engineer Thomas Telford in 1822, and presently offers substantial self-catering accommodation, sleeping 26 guests, in the perfect spot for exploring Dumfriesshire.

This impressive period property offers well-proportioned rooms and retained period detail including the notable original staircase and balustrade. The flexible layout, excellent transport links and potential to continue with the success of the existing business, make this a very attractive property. As at the end of January 2023, 36 out of 52 weekends (Friday – Monday) are already booked for 2023, at a nightly rate of £795, with the vendors having to turn away some enquiries due to demand.
It is also worth noting that in 2022 over £45,000 has been invested back into the property, to include repair/replacement of part of the roof, and new windows where necessary.
